So people are hyped because they don't know cron?

Yeah and people were hyped for Dropbox because they did not know rsync and ftp.

You forgot cron. rsync without the periodic poll is not a good Dropbox-replacement.

Dropbox wasn't given access to your bank account 2fa. There should maybe be slightly more gatekeeping around installing software that unironically advertises itself as RCE: https://docs.openclaw.ai/gateway/security#node-execution-sys...

There is a large amount of gatekeeping called installing and configuring this software. It is not a trivial task that normies can easily accomplish. You have to walk past so many red flags, that you would rightly be called in idiot if you lost anyting of value.

I'll be more concerned for the public when its a double click. Currently it's just a way for techies to fafo. And I do enjoy that there are many people out there messing around with it. It is closer to the 90s experimental net mindset and than I've seen lately. It is also fun that its not a big corpo release. It is not often quick and dirty small team software blows up this big and gets noticed by the world at large.

It is combination of:

- Cron-style heartbeat manager

- Easy customization with markdown only

- Good out-of-box memory management that just works

- Good set of tools out-of-box that just work

Like Jack Dorsey said about project success, limit number of details and make those details perfect
